BWW Review: First Act Soars, Second Act Bores in THE LORAX at Mirvish

Dr. Seuss's fictional world becomes livable with colourful, captivating designs, folky tunes and unique, striking costumes that create a dreamy theatrical experience. In David Greig's stage version, adapted from the short children's book, most of the one-line story is covered by intermission, leaving the second act to grumble on and on through an already thin plot.

In anticipation, we have the first single, the awesomely cinematic 'Part XIV,' with its visceral, dramatic sweep of strings, and featuring a powerfully moving vocal by British songstress Rae Morris.' -- Ken Scudato, BlackBook (6/30/17)
